  • Show up as a culture carrier: celebrating wins, reinforcing standards, and setting the tone

What Success Looks Like

  • A portfolio that is growing, both in revenue and in the quality of the work

  • Work that is creatively strong and commercially effective

  • An account team that is aligned, confident, and set up to do its best work
